When cultures meet

Zainab: Her and her sister was placed at a Danish orphanage. They did not speak Danish because they had been living abroad their whole life, and now they got a massive culture-chock.

Sumaya: She is a third generation immigrant, and she is also very religious. Her daily life is based on school, friends and religion.

Josefine: She's ethnically Danish and lives with her parents and sister in the rich neighbourhood Hellerup. She talked a lot about her teenage issues and how she felt about life.

Our thoughts:
First of all we think that it must be horrible for a girl like Zainab to be placed far away from home with the fact that you don't know the language and culture. If you look at Sumaya, she's very integrated in the society. She has friends, a family and an everyday life, which makes her a completely normal teenage girl. In the end Josefine is a Danish teenage girl with a wealthy family. But just because your life seems perfect on the outside, doesn't mean, that you can't be confused and having trouble finding yourself.
